Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 412 It’s cold at high places

It was late at night, and naturally the streets were empty. One could only faintly hear the night watchman knocking on his clapperboard, "It's dry, be careful with fire."

Yang Yiyi walked on the deserted street. Even the dogs were asleep at this time, so of course there was no one on the street.

She seemed dazed and even walked a little unsteadily, making people doubt whether she could find her way back in this unfamiliar place.

Yang Yiyi didn't have any destination, she was just walking aimlessly.

At this moment, a rather conspicuous light in the night came into view, and Yang Yiyi saw from afar that the other end of the street was brightly lit.

Just like mosquitoes are attracted to light, Yang Yiyi unconsciously moved towards the direction of the light. When she got closer, she vaguely heard a noisy sound. As the distance got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer.

Looking up, I saw red lanterns celebrating the Lantern Festival hanging on both sides of a restaurant. A plaque with gold characters on a black background was clearly visible in the orange or red lights.

The inscription is "Taibai Tower".

As early as when she passed by here before, Yang Yiyi wanted to go to Taibai Tower to take a look, but she didn't expect to end up here unknowingly.

Just when she was confused, Yang Yiyi walked towards Taibai Tower without thinking.

Most of the businesses in the entire Luancheng had probably closed down long ago, except for the Taibai Tower which remained lit all night long.

The reason is naturally simple, because Taibai Tower mainly does business with people from the underworld.

The name of Taibai Tower does not come from the poet Li Bai, but from the Taibai Star in the sky. During the Young Heroes Conference, Taibai Tower will be open until the Taibai Star appears in the sky. Taibai Star is also called the Morning Star, and it was already early morning at that time, so the tower was renamed Taibai Tower.

"Lady, please come in. The heroes are having a great time."

As soon as Yang Yiyi approached, a waiter came forward to greet her, as if he was used to seeing gangsters coming in the middle of the night.

As soon as you enter the lobby, you are instantly overwhelmed by the noise. Some people are playing finger-guessing games, some are eating meat, and there is a special fighting arena in the corner of the lobby. People who go up there don't need to have any martial arts skills, they just rely on wrestling.

The big white wall on the other side was covered with crooked handwriting. A group of martial artists were jumping around there, trying to see who had the best martial arts skills and could leave their calligraphy at a higher place.

All these are different, and they all target the pain points of people in the martial arts world who love to compete.

Ordinary restaurants and inns obviously do not have these items, and people from the martial arts world are generally quite well-behaved. However, Taibai Tower goes the other way and deliberately provides people from the martial arts world with a place to have fun, so naturally its business is booming.

"This young hero knows my Thunder Sword, Gu Tao, and he is determined to get it!"

"Don't give me that. Is that just your mediocre skills?"

She seemed to hear a familiar voice in her ears, but Yang Yiyi didn't care at all.

If Yang Yiyi had seen this scene at other times, she would definitely not be able to resist coming over to try it herself, but she really wasn't in the mood to do so now.

"Lady Yang is here!"

"Long time no see, Lady Yang."

Yang Yiyi got to know a lot of people in Leishan Zang. She was also there when the Tianlang Cult’s stronghold was besieged. Many of the martial arts people present knew her, and when they saw Yang Yiyi come in, they all bowed and greeted her.

Yang Yiyi also returned the gifts one by one, at least she looked good in terms of appearance, but she was not as positive and happy as usual.

Men and women were drinking and chatting in the store, but when they came to Yang Yiyi, it was as if they had encountered a layer of protection. She was not affected by the emotions at all, and just strolled among the crowd woodenly.

Before she knew it, she went up to the second floor, which was a little quieter than the first floor, but only a little.

The most eye-catching thing is a huge terrace, where a group of people gathered, sometimes admiring and sometimes expressing regret.

“This building is too tall and too steep.”

"Nonsense, the fine wine of Taibai Tower is not so easy to get. If you want to drink it, just take out the silver and buy it yourself." Yang Yiyi walked over and saw that this group of people were watching others climbing the stairs.

The roof of Taibai Tower has been renovated. The top is a pagoda-shaped structure which is very steep and difficult for ordinary people to climb up without a ladder.

There is a golden bell hanging on the top of the tower. If someone rings the bell, they can get a jar of good wine for free. However, you cannot use your hands to get up there, you can only jump up using light skills.

This is not an easy thing to do.

The Young Heroes Association mainly attracts wandering people from all walks of life. Disciples from famous and upright sects would not bother to make a name for themselves in such a place. Everyone's martial arts skills are also uneven, and it is very rare to find someone who can make the leap among this group of people.

"Lady Yang has also come to Luancheng?"

"Why don't you give it a try, lady? Maybe with your ability, you can get a jar of good wine for free today."

Many of the people upstairs knew Yang Yiyi, and they started to make a fuss when they saw her coming up.

Yang Yiyi was thinking about other things, so she didn't refuse. Without saying a word, she used the Fish Leap Technique to jump.

She could jump five or six meters high, which really impressed the people around her. However, she was still far from the top of the tower, and Yang Yiyi landed at about one-third of the way.

But the edge was steep and Yang Yiyi was still a little dazed. She lost her balance and slipped down, falling on the roof of Taibai Building.

The group of people below started to make a noise in disappointment when they saw this. It wasn't that high, and it wouldn't kill anyone, but it would still hurt a lot.

This fall actually woke Yang Yiyi up.

Or maybe this fall was just a simple way to vent, which alleviated Yang Yiyi's worries a little.

"Look, Lady Yang wants to try again!"

Yang Yiyi stood on the roof and jumped again. This time she landed steadily on the tiles, and the people below cheered loudly.

But this is just the beginning. The higher you go, the narrower the space you can stand on and the steeper the tiles become.

She took a look and leaped again. This time she almost slipped when she landed, and she managed to stand by turning her feet sideways.

Looking at the golden bell high up, Yang Yiyi seemed to understand something.

Climbing the tower seems to be similar to the martial arts world.

The higher you go, the smaller the space becomes.

It’s awesome to be able to overlook the entire world from the top of a mountain, but the higher you stand, the colder it will be.

Yang Yiyi looked down. The tower became wider as it went down. Although it was pressed down by the top, without the bottom, the entire tower would be like a rootless duckweed and would fall down without being touched.

Do you want to be the spire or the base?
Yang Yiyi asked herself this, but the answer in her heart was "Do what you want to do."

The top of a tower has its own advantages, and the base of a tower has its own comforts. The key is not what you want to become, but what you want to do.

Yang Yiyi had a vague feeling that she had figured things out. She aimed at the top of the tower where the golden bell was and jumped up again. She landed on the top of the tower as lightly as a roc spreading its wings, and seemed to weigh nothing at all.

Standing here, you can clearly see most of Luancheng, but looking down, you can't see the faces of the chivalrous heroes who just greeted you enthusiastically.

It’s lonely at the top. The higher you go, the easier it is to ignore things that are more important to you.

At this moment, Yang Yiyi seemed to have figured it out.
